"We lost a tough one today," OU head coach John Roddick said. "I give Kentucky a ton of credit for pulling out the doubles and the last singles match. We have to do a much better job of closing matches out when we have the opportunities. We competed incredibly hard all night and I was very proud of our effort."

All three doubles matches went to tiebreaks, but Kentucky topped the Sooners to claim the team point.

OU fought back during singles to tie the match 3-3.

Freshman Leonard Stakhovsky played the determining match at the No. 6 position. He won the first set 6-4. Kentucky's Grant Roberts came back to win the second set 6-4. The third set went back-and-forth until Roberts won the set 7-5, winning the match for Kentucky.
